Physical Therapy
Physical therapy services to avert and treat injuries are available to students enrolled in all full-time programs. Injuries are evaluated by one of our physical therapists, who will advise on how to manage the injury and/or modify activity. For more serious injuries, students are referred to a physician for additional treatment. These services offer an excellent opportunity for dancers to learn about their own bodies.
The on-site physical therapy room is equipped with strength and cardiovascular equipment for cross training, including:
- Lower and upper extremity bikes
- Treadmills
- Pilates Cadillac (reformer and trapeze table)
- Free weights
- Cable columns
- Balance equipment
